Painting MDF without primer/undercoat
7 Answers
Can anyone tell me if it's OK to paint an ordinary MDF panel with a bog-standard black gloss paint? My concern is whether this will work without a primer and/or undercoat neither of which I have. If necessary, I have enough of the gloss paint to give it more than one coat.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Thanks monty0703.
cleversod, there's a simple answer to your question, bearing in mind that the panel I mentioned is nine inches long by three inches wide. I've got an unused tin of black gloss paint at home but only a fool would go out to buy suitable primer and undercoat for something this size if the job could be done without it. Just think about it - 90% of even a 500ml tin is likely to be wasted.
